Chapter 8 What the Metropolitan Procuratorate is best at
After the explanation, Xu Mochen had a good sleep.
But outside the palace, everything was in chaos.
All the ministers saw what happened at the banquet. The emperor was so aggressive in targeting the immortal cultivators, which caught them off guard.
When everything was uncertain, I asked the Prime Minister, so a large group of officials came to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Xu Yiru, the censor of Youdu, was also among the crowd.
Today the emperor is targeting their imperial censor, the Imperial Procuratorate. As a department leader, this is tantamount to a slap in the face.
And he, like Liu Yi, both belong to the immortal cultivator world, and he is even more angry.
Before leaving, I exchanged a few words with Tang Derun. The other person’s half-smiling look was a naked provocation.
He is different from Tang Derun. Tang Derun belongs to the world of monsters and beasts, has no sect, and has no choice but to follow Xu Mochen in order to repay his kindness and have a shallow relationship with immortality.
And he has the mission of the sect, asking to help the emperor to unify the world and allow human beings to better serve the Xianxia world.
His utilitarianism is far higher than that of Tang Derun.
If the situation hadn't been unclear, he would have thought of taking action during the banquet and killing the emperor.
Now, the most important thing is the Prime Minister's attitude. After all, behind him is the Mo League, the strongest organization in the world.
The Mo Alliance advocates that the world order of the ten directions is supreme, and that immortal cultivators from all walks of life must love each other equally and live in harmony with the human race.
The immortal cultivators of the Mo League, who call themselves Mo Masters, are very important in the world of Shifang.
His attitude towards the human race is relatively soft.
So Xu Yiru had to come to explore the truth.
Unexpectedly, when everyone arrived at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, they learned that the Prime Minister had a bad stomach at the banquet and was now ill and refused to see guests.
This is complete nonsense. How can a cultivator get a bad stomach after eating something?
But this is the Prime Minister's Mansion, so no one dares to break in.
"Our Prime Minister has said that we are all the right-hand men of Da Gan. No matter what happens, we must do our best for the future of Da Gan.
Whatever you should do, do it normally. It is a waste of time to think about useless things all day long.
Today's matter was indeed disrespectful to Mr. Liu Yi and Liu, and your Majesty handled it in a reasonable and well-founded manner.
The stability of the cadres and the stability of the court are also the foundation of your lords.
Now that our Prime Minister is ill, you adults don’t have to wait here. It’s best to go back and do business first.”
The servant guarding the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion spread the word.
Xu Yiru listened and returned to his home silently.
As soon as he got home, several censors he had made friends with were waiting for him, and one of them, like Liu Yi, was a cultivator of the Wuji Sect.
"Sir," the man said anxiously, "what did the Prime Minister say?"
"I'm feeling sick, this old ghost," Xu Yiru sneered, "he said it strictly.
But it’s not his fault, the Mexican League has always focused on order, and as long as order exists, they will not interfere.”
"But," the Wuji Sect censor was unwilling to accept, "Senior Brother Liu was deposed and arrested, leading to death. Isn't it a violation of order?"
"Stupid!" Xu Yiru lectured, "Then tell me, if there is an early morning meeting tomorrow, what kind of order will be broken?"
The censor of the Wuji Sect is speechless. The death of a censor and immortal cultivator is simply a trivial matter.
In these hundreds of years of chaos, countless immortal cultivators have fallen due to their participation in the turmoil of the human race.
"We must put the overall situation first," Xu Yiru warned. "The Prime Minister is right to thank guests behind closed doors. At this time, it is not easy to express our position, so we must stabilize our position."
"But sir," someone objected, "it seems that the emperor did not use the destiny of the country to kill the immortal today.
According to the rules of heaven, the emperor cannot cultivate immortality, so how did your majesty suddenly achieve cultivation?"
"Maybe it's some kind of talisman or seal script," Xu Yiru frowned, "Don't forget, Tang Derun's Yinlu protected him, and he may have used some special magical power to kill a middle-level Qi Refining Realm man while he was unprepared.
It’s not like there have been many cultivators of immortality before.”
After saying this, everyone was silent.
After a while, someone else spoke: "What do you mean, Sir, the emperor just killed Sir Liu by accident?"
"After all, His Majesty is the emperor who unified the world. He is young and has murderous intentions. Suddenly someone slanders Zhongliang's orphan in person, and it is inevitable that he will be upset." Xu Yiru said his analysis, "In other words, he has opinions against us immortal cultivators, and he is trying to scare the monkeys.
But Your Majesty is not a fool. There will never be a good outcome if a mortal fights against an immortal cultivator.
He will not risk his life or his throne with us.
So you see, he didn’t use his trump card, National Fortune.
The Prime Minister must have expected this and chose to treat it coldly."
It makes sense to say so.
If the world is united, wouldn't it be nice to take care of your own harem? Why should you risk your life?
"But," one person asked, "What if His Majesty really has some cultivation?"
Xu Yiru's face was solemn: "Then there is something wrong, but there is no need to panic. No matter how powerful your majesty is, he is only one person. There are so many powerful ancestors in the world of immortality, so killing him is not a big problem.
However, I guess what Shifang World means is that as long as Your Majesty does not go too far and listens to what you say, that is the best. After all, we have supported him single-handedly and spent so much effort. It would be a pity to kill him."
Everyone was silent, it’s just that they have paid so much.
For a long time, one person was unwilling to give in: "But this time His Majesty is targeting the censor of our Metropolitan Procuratorate, and his face is crushed."
"It can only be said that Liu Yi is stupid and let others act like a fool and throw stones to ask for directions, so the prime minister also left it behind and said that what should be done should be done," Xu Yiru ordered, "You should immediately write a letter to the sect and tell the story of what happened today.
Report it to us and see what we say."
The censor of Wuji Sect agreed.
"Then we just have to wait for this matter?" A censor asked for instructions, "Do you want to inform the censor of Zuodu?"
"There is no need to disturb you for the time being," Xu Yiru shook his head, "Of course we cannot let this matter go. Otherwise, if our sect has gained a foothold in the Xianxia world, other walks of life will look down on us."
This is a serious consequence. For the Immortal Cultivator Sect, face is very important, otherwise how can we accept new disciples?
A human emperor killed their immortal cultivator, and they didn't even show any sign of it. It was really unjustifiable.
"Then I'll go into the palace," one person stood up and wiped his neck, "and deal with it?"
"Asshole!" Xu Yiru yelled, "With the blessing of national luck, is the palace so easy to visit?
Moreover, the destiny of the country now corresponds to His Majesty, and you killed him indiscriminately. The destiny of the country has not been dispersed, the great dynasty has been destroyed, and troubled times have begun again. Is this something you can claim without authorization?"
As he spoke, he also stood up and walked around the hall: "But you can't just forget it, but you have to find the right opportunity.
We are all procurators, what are we best at?"
"Advice, advice," someone answered.
"It's the control of public opinion," Xu Yiru sighed. Such an official who is a cultivator is really stupid. "Don't you know, your Majesty summoned Princess Yong'an to the palace tonight, but she hasn't come out yet."
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
"Princess Yong'an is the orphan of Zhongliang. Let's talk about this matter," Xu Yiru said confidently. "On the one hand, I wrote a letter of apology on behalf of Liu Yi to show the sincerity of our Metropolitan Procuratorate.
On the other hand, if the general public believes the chaos in the emperor's palace and makes other articles in the future, then the national destiny will gradually no longer correspond to your majesty.
When that time comes, wouldn’t it be more appropriate to do him?”
Everyone bowed in unison: "Your Excellency is wise!"
"We, the admonishers, have to add fuel to the progress of the harem." Xu Yiru sneered.
First, separate the national destiny from Xu Mochen.
When he has children, the national destiny will naturally be passed on to his children, which is the most stable.
If that doesn't work, then kill the emperor and find a way to transfer the country to other vassals to continue.
In short, the death of the emperor cannot destroy the Great Qian.
